Old-style brakeoldeng24lder Raleigh brakes are identified by the special cables they require. These cables do not use anchor bolts. Instead, they have soldered lugs at both ends. Replacement cables came with the adjusting barrels. To replace them, you would remove the nut that held the old adjusting barrel fitting to the caliper, and switch over the whole assembly. When available, the cables came in three varieties: "front", "gent's rear" and "lady's rear". The "lady's rear" was longer and had the adjusting barrel facing the other way. Good luck finding replacements today. | Old-style brakeoldeng24lder Raleigh brakes are identified by the special cables they require. These cables do not use anchor bolts.

The center bolts on "Raleigh-type" brakes are not adjustable. The spring block has a shoulder that is made to be just the right length so that the caliper arms can move freely. The spring block has a plain, un-threaded hole, so tightening it with the screwdriver end is the same as tightening the nut that holds the caliper to the bike. | The center bolts on "Raleigh-type" brakes are not adjustable.

oldeng24hillips-type" brakes use a conventional cable anchor bolt and a regular single-ended cable. Unlike the "Raleigh-type" calipers, the center bolt is adjustable. Much like Shimano side-pulls, turning the center bolt (with a screwdriver) adjusts the free play of the caliper arms. Unlike Shimano side-pulls, there is no separate locknut, so the same nut that holds the caliper to the bike acts as a locknut. | oldeng24hillips-type" brakes use a conventional cable anchor bolt and a regular single-ended cable.
